first visit to the place...had an impression that it will be a small but turned out to be quite big... huge rush

Paranormal Activity

huuf....hell of a movie.A must watch for Horror film lovers.I am scared after a long time. Putting in a real element to it makes it more scarier than other movies. Before watching the movie I thought it is what happened in actual to the couple in real...all live recording . That element made it way too scary without any picture of a demon/ghost in the entire film...watching it at around 3 AM with all lights turned off added to scariness. After googling found out it is work of fiction taking into account some instances where things have actually experienced by the people including those involved in making of the film.

The movie was made on a low budget of $15K but has done business of >$200 million in US alone so far.

I am still feeling the blues...... hope it fades fast after knowing that it is work of fiction :).

The White Balloon

Another great movie I happen to saw on UTV World Movies channel. I really like the channel for its coverage of movies made in different parts of the world and not just sticking to usual all American movies like on Star Movies and HBO. Also the kind of movies played are very good...most won an award when they were launched. The latest one I watched was The White Balloon...a story of little girl named Razieh who has a wish to get a new gold fish on the eve of New Year in Iran. The ones she has are skinny and she is not content with them. The whole movie is centered around the events which go through in order for Razeih to get her wish. The movie direction and acting by the lead child actor is superb along with good performances from other actors. Considering the fact this was a debut movie for Iranian director Jafar Panahi it is really commendable work. More detailed review can be found here.

The Dark Knight

kicking Batman action movie.....though it is quite long compared to usual Hollywood movies. This one will hold you to the edge of you seats and you wont feel bored even for a minute . The performance from the villain(Joker) is the most brilliant . It was played by late Heath Ledger. A must see in a movie theater. Highly rated by IMDB as well.

Fan Chan

This is one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. Fan Chan( My Girl) is the story of two childhood friends named Jeab (boy) and Noi Nah(girl). Going through the daily routine of going to school, playing and then back home to sleep. The father of both are barbers and mothers are quite good friends. The movie shows a lot of innocence captured in childhood and the very simple acts of care which will surely make you feel stick to it. Music too is very good. More reviews here.
